Whether you’re a regular customer or first-timer at Restaurant Epic, there’s no better way to sample the eatery’s best flavors than by opting for its tasting menu. For just $35, diners are treated to a meal of epic proportions — three different entrees, a starter and dessert.

According to general manager David Chang, Restaurant Epic offers a different tasting menu each month.

“The tasting menu features dishes that are either on the menu or they’re something we’ve been running as a special,” he explains. “It’s a combination; a little bit of everything. Our January tasting (menu) is selling very well right now; everyone seems to like it.”

“The pork chop has a mushroom and onion gravy on it,” Park states. “The Seafood Ravioli will consist of shrimp and scallops, and it has a Cajun roasted red pepper cream sauce on top. The butterfish is miso-marinated and glazed; you’ll also be served garlic bacon mashed potatoes.”

Finally, the meal concludes with dessert, which is Coconut Ice Cream.

“Our tasting menu is a good deal,” Park summarizes. “It gives you a chance to try a lot of our signature items and specials all in one dish, so you can get a general idea of what we have to offer.”
